    摘要: A rotating electrical machine equipped with a magnetic field-producing unit which includes a magnet unit having magnets each of which has easy axes of magnetization oriented to extend linearly parallel to each other and defines a plurality of magnetic paths along the easy axes of magnetization. The magnets are discrete from each other through a d-axis defined on the center of the magnetic pole and a q-axis defined on a magnetic boundary between the magnetic poles. The magnets are configured to have a back electromotive force constant which is higher than that of parallel-oriented magnets when an angle of rotation of the rotor lies in a first angle range including the gravity center of the magnets. The parallel-oriented magnets are designed to have magnetic paths which are different from those of the magnets of the magnet unit and oriented along easy axes of magnetization extending linearly parallel to the d-axis.

    摘要: In a rotating electrical machine, an armature includes a filmy sheet member secured to one of an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface of a base member to cover one of the inner peripheral surface and the outer peripheral surface of the base member. A sheet member is made of thermoplastic resin as non-magnetic material, and has a field-member side peripheral surface. Each conductive member has at least part embedded in the sheet member in a radial direction of the rotating electrical machine to thereby arrange a base-member side peripheral surface to be radially closer to the base member than the field-generator side peripheral surface of the sheet member is.

    摘要: A voltage limit ellipse is defined in a d-q coordinate system of a rotating electric machine by d-axis and q-axis currents flowing through an armature coil when the magnitude of a voltage vector applied to the armature coil is equal to a voltage limit value. The product of the number of electrical conductor sections per pole in each phase and the number of poles of the rotating electric machine is set to have, when the rotational speed of the rotating electric machine is equal to a maximum rotational speed, the center of the voltage limit ellipse located outside an electric-current limit circle and in a negative d-axis region in the d-q coordinate system and a positive-d-axis-side vertex of the voltage limit ellipse located inside or on the electric-current limit circle.

    摘要: In a rotating electrical machine, each magnet installation hole is formed to be in conformity with a radial cross-sectional shape of a corresponding magnet to be installed therein. Each of the magnets and the corresponding magnet installation holes has opposite peripheral surfaces. One of the opposite peripheral surfaces serves as a far-stator peripheral surface located to be further from a stator than the other thereof. The far-stator peripheral surface of each of the magnets and the corresponding magnet installation holes has a circumferential end and a circumferential middle. The magnet unit has a first radial dimension defined from the circumferential end of the far-stator surface to the stator, and a second radial dimension defined from the circumferential middle of the far-stator surface to the stator. The first radial dimension is lower than the second radial dimension.

    摘要: In a rotating electrical machine, a field element includes a field element core to which magnets are fixed. The magnet has a pair of first acting surfaces opposing each other and through which a magnetic flux flows in or flows out, and a second acting surface serving as an inflow surface or an outflow surface for magnetic flux in a q-axis-side end portion. Between an acting surface on the armature side of the pair of first acting surfaces and the second acting surface, the magnet has a magnet magnetic path that extends from one acting surface to the other. The field element core has a q-axis-side portion adjacent in the circumferential direction to the acting surface of the magnet. A controller controls an energization phase of phases of an armature winding to cause a state of magnetic saturation of the q-axis-side portion of the field element core to be variable.

    摘要: A rotating electric machine includes a rotor and a stator. The stator includes a stator core and a stator coil. The stator coil includes three first windings, three second windings and three switch units. The first windings are Δ-connected to define three nodes therebetween. The second windings are arranged so as to be respectively connectable between the nodes and three phase terminals of the stator coil. The switch units respectively switch the connections between the nodes and the phase terminals between a direct connection state and an indirect connection state. In the direct connection state, the nodes are respectively directly connected with the phase terminals. In the indirect connection state, the nodes are respectively connected with the phase terminals via the second windings. The first and second windings are mounted on the stator core so that the first windings are located closer than the second windings to the rotor.
